Mine hates trailing commas :)

More seriously, I don't like having lists like that in the code in the first place. I don't want multiple lines taken up for just constant values, and if it turns out to require maintenance then the data should be in a config file instead anyway.

Rule of 3, write/change it once or twice (or seldomly enough with no possible negative impact) and it doesn't need any complexity. More than so.. yeah probably goes into a config.

Constants in the code are easier to navigate to than config files.
